Univited Guests

Around 10:30 last night our indoor cat started to cry at our sliding glass door in our bedroom. Usually when she cries it means that there is something outside our door that is frightening her. Well, as it turns out, raccoons are back in our neighborhood. We turned on our backyard light to find a raccoon staring down our cat through the glass. The raccoon started to back away when the light came on so we calmed our cat down and when back to sleep. About 45 minutes later she started to cry again...this time the raccoon brought 2 of his friends. We tried to shoo them away and went back to bed only to be woken by our cat another time to find another raccoon at our door. We were furious with our cat and the raccoons so we did our best to block the sliding glass door so they couldn't interact anymore. Finally by midnight we were all able to get some peaceful rest!

That's why we live in WEST Davis... no raccoons. ;-)

Yeah, but in West Davis you have all the gang violence, meth labs, and Democrats.
